  2. Wasn't my hypotheses; it belongs to the paper's author from Utah.. My hypothesis is only we should not shy away from studying the relationship between genetics and intelligence and I cited the Utah paper as an example. God help anyone who does this research in our PC environment.

    I have no idea if their hypothesis is correct. However, growing up and going to schools with more than half Jews makes me think they are on to something. I went to school with some brilliant kids.

    Thanks for the link.

  4. Here's an interview with the professor, who received his phd from Harvard, who was one of the researchers involved with the Jewish IQ studies, and the Bell Curve:

  5. In theory, we have the intellectual and moral tools to defuse the dangers. "Is" does not imply "ought." Group differences, when they exist, pertain to averages, not to individual men and women. There are geniuses and dullards, saints and sinners, in every race, ethnicity, and gender. Political equality is a commitment to universal human rights, and to policies that treat people as individuals rather than as representatives of groups; it is not an empirical claim that people are indistinguishable. Many commentators seem unwilling to grasp these points.
